Aster DM Healthcare has introduced Intra-Operative Electron Radiation Therapy (IOeRT) at the Aster International Institute of Oncology (AIIO), Aster Whitefield Hospital, Bengaluru. This advanced therapy reduces the need for multiple post-operative radiation sessions, streamlining cancer treatment for patients.
According to the GLOBOCAN report, cancer cases in India are projected to rise by 57.5 percent by 2040. In response, Aster looks to set the benchmark for treatment protocols and techniques available globally, said the company in a release.
“We strive to enhance the quality of treatment for our patients alongwith reducing recovery time enabling a quicker return to normal life for our patients. We believe that the future of healthcare lies in combining precision, efficiency, and patient comfort, and we are dedicated to leading that transformation,” said Alisha Moopen, Deputy Managing Director, Aster DM Healthcare.
Currently, Aster operates 19 hospitals, 13 clinics, 217 pharmacies (operated by Alfaone Retail Pharmacies), and 243 labs and patient experience centers across five states in India.
